Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The relationship between A and B is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The structural representation of sugar molecule in cyclic form is known as Haworth projection. Sugar molecule that has six-membered-ring is known as pyranose and sugar molecule that has five-membered-ring is called furanose. The anomers are cyclic monosaccharides, which differ in configuration at one stereogenic centre. These carbon atoms are called anomeric centre.
(b)
Interpretation:
The acyclic form of both A and B are to be drawn and each compound is to be named.
